September 25, 20188 yr Like everyone else I'm disappointed the Buxton has been injured so often and hasn't put up better offensive numbers. But look at the player selected before him in the draft. Carlos Correa of the Astros. After a sizzling start to his career he's battled injuries this year and is only hitting .238. Not the end of the world, but it still shows you that even talented players will have their ups and downs. At this point, i'm just hoping for a healthy Buxton in 2019, and one that can finally put it all together. We need him. Hmm, Correa won a WS and was the #4 hitter in their lineup. He also gets on base at a high clip and hits for power. Buxton has been a bust so far. Correa hurt this year, yep, that's about the only comparison you could do with those 2 guys are hitters. I agree, we need him to produce. But so far he has shown literally nothing at the plate. If he can't be better than a .200 or under hitter or learn to get on base at a .330 or better clip, he will be useless to this organization.
